Phubbing

It's a combination of' 'phone' and 'snubbing' – snub means to deliberately ignore someone you know. New words formed by putting together parts of existing words are known as blends or portmanteau words. And 'phubbing' is starting to appear in some online dictionaries.

Is social media a distraction?

wind someone up
say or do something deliberately in order to annoy someone

have a connection with someone
engage emotionally

interrupting conversations to check your phone has become a social norm

I do get wound up about people constantly checking their devices. Yesterday, I was in a café and two girls came in. They sat down and started chatting away – but not to each other – they were tapping away at their devices. And there was no face-to-face conversation at all!

I'm all ears. 和wind someone up 是什麼意思呢?
